Need some help /g/
Bought an ipad off a guy on one of those facebook sites. Guy knew nothing about tech and sold it to me dirt cheap cuz he didnt know what he was doing. Trying to restore the device and i got this far. Is this the inevitable ICloud? (I know nothing of apple devices) Is there a way to work around this? Idk what to do

Sold dirt cheap? He fucked you, just like you gonna fuck somebody else.
I get im fucked but is there nothing at all i can do? Im sure im not the only one thats come across this. Can i jailbreak it to get around it or do a more thorough restore?

>he didnt know what he was doing

So is there literally nothing i can do?

No way to bypass it easily.
The only way is to manually reflash the whole firmware, bootloader or whatever Apple calls it which is only possible with a JBOD poti.
Tl;Dr: you'll have to manually splice pins on a chip to flash a new firmware

You did try to do it in DFU mode right?
> plug it to a pc
> turn off
> hold power for 3 seconds
> hold home and power for 10 seconds
> releasepower button but keep pressing home
> After 15 seconds you will be allerted by itunes that the device is in recovery mode.
